The dog was placed in a foster home, but escaped and was surrendered to Prince George's County Animal Services where he was euthanized.
GEORGE was on the news tonight.
His passing was a tragedy and it will hopefully never happen to any other dog that goes to PG Animal Services with a microchip.
George entered the shelter on 6/21 and killed on 6/22. The rescue has YET to hear from PG county authorities as to why, and why he was not given the 5 day stray hold time for his rescue to find him.

UPDATE: We have the saddest news💔😭
GEORGE was KILLED at PG Animal shelter in Maryland although he had a microchip. This was shared with the rescue by the shelter workers. Typically when a rescue dog like GEORGE is taken to a shelter, the shelter calls the rescue to reclaim the dog. Typically dogs get five days of hold while they are reclaimed. In this case, nobody at the shelter verified ownership, and additionally they authorized him to be killed within 24 hours.
Every pet should be checked for a chip when entering a shelter REGARDLESS of “who” dropped off. Sorry the BROKEN SYSTEM & PROTOCOLS AT PG failed you. May your soul rest in peace 💯❤️🩹💔 You had a home waiting for you and you did not have to die. So sorry, you were a good boy😭😭😭😭
Update: We contacted George's hooman to take him out to a meet and greet today, for an adopter that has a very calm home. As we shared before, George strives in calm environments. 💛
Well, we have just found out that GEORGE escaped and the person that had him called animal control on him and surrendered him to the pound on Tuesday 6/21.
We are finding out details to get him back to his 501c3 rescue. His microchip is under the rescue and he is a rescue dog. We will update as we find out more.

🔴NORTHERN VIRGINIA: GEORGE is very sad right now. Needs a home URGENT🔴 His hooman got sick and was at the hospital so he has been living outside, waiting. His hooman cannot keep him anymore. Please share GEORGE URGENT. Visit this page so you see his videos, he is such a wonderful dog, a hound that does NOT howl... he has been let down by humanity over and over again.💔😢
This is George now. 💔😢 George is 6 years old, 54lbs, and neutered. He knows 'sit', 'down', 'paw' and he listens very well. He lives walks and he does great in car rides. He is in good health and has no behavioral issues. He has had a friend cat before. So he likes certain cats. And dogs.
Prior he was being fostered as an only dog, in an apartment with furparents that were home a lot. George is used to living in apartments, but we really would like for him to have a backyard to sniff. He is a hound after all! A hound that does not howl. He does not, which is why he has lived in apartments for so long.
George loves a good treat, a long walk and doing tricks for food. He loves being the center of the world. Sadly that was not the case in his prior life, he was a side show. He was forced to move a lot, which dogs hate. He just did not have the right home. He was attacked in a dog park when he was a puppy, and so he is afraid of fast movements and loud things.
The right environment for George is a low traffic, kid-free home with a yard. Kid-free because he is afraid of high pitched noises and fast movement. We think George was screamed at, because he cowers and hides if he hears high volume/high pitched voices. He prefers a calm, predictable routine, no chaos, with adults that take great care of him. He is afraid of NEW things.
He does well with other dogs with slow introductions. Anything NEW, needs a little time. And that's ok. He is such a great pup!
To meet George please send us a message. Home visit, references and application will be required. 💖
We are heartbroken for George. Please only comment if you can help George or provide solutions.💖
***RIP GEORGE😢💔***
This is George now. 💔😢
His human has got sick and cannot keep him anymore. Please watch the videos of this sweet dog and let's find him a forever home. He is so deserving. 6 years old, 54lbs, and neutered. He knows 'sit', 'down', 'paw' and he listens very well. He lives walks and he does great in car rides. He is in good health and has no behavioral issues.
He is currently in Woodbridge, VA. Prior he was being fostered as an only dog, in an apartment with furparents that are home a lot. George is used to living in apartments, but we really would like for him to have a backyard to sniff. He is a hound after all! A hound that does not howl.

Please keep sharing George! 💟
First photo of George still scared and not decompressed, and second picture of him blooming at his foster, decompressed and ready to find his forever home. Sadly this has not happened yet, but the rescue is working on it. I am recommending the following for all dogs that are scared of new things, like George.
💟PLEASE, ANY FOSTER THAT TAKES A NEW DOG: ESPECIALLY SCARED ONES, THEIR SUCCESS IS IN YOUR HANDS💟:
Your dog may appear to be on high alert when you receive him. This is normal, he had to be, in order to survive.
Your dog needs decompression and to be left alone, nobody bothering him or requesting anything of him. No family intros (no, junior has to wait if there is one), obviously no dog park, no meeting the neighbor, no exposure to ANYTHING that may set him up to high alert.
He just needs a calm place- no noisy kids, no other dogs for now, no loud noises, no traffic of people around, nothing that will tell him he must protect himself. Remember, this is a dog that has overcome a severe trauma, and his next step is to allow himself to relax, no more extra cortisol in his system, no more anxiety about 'oh my god what now?'
Maybe a small guest room, bathroom, with a cozy bed, open crate covered by a blanket (den), water, some treats and stuffed toys, and classical music. Do not place him in the middle of the living room like a circus monkey. Place him away from any noise or traffic, in a place where he can retreat and do his own thing.
Then someone to carefully and gently change his water, talk to him gently without asking him to do anything, just reassuring him he is okay and everything is going to be fine. Do not ask to cuddle, pet, look into eyes (no go in an afraid dog), ask for anything whatsoever. He is there to receive CALM, PEACE, QUIET, WATER, FOOD, POTTY BREAKS, and IF he chooses to come out of the den eventually... let him approach you for attention.
Calm potty breaks in the yard, and just let him calm down for 2-3 weeks until he realizes that he can relax and not be on alert like he had to be in that hellhole (or unsuitable environment).
Any questions, please let me know
George says, please keep sharing me! Thank you for being there for me!

06/11 GEORGE HAS NOWHERE TO GO!💔FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED URGENT
5/12 A LOT HAS HAPPENED SINCE GEORGE HAS BEEN PLACED IN FOSTER! 😍😍😍
He has really come out of his shell, and is showing an amazing personality. George is 5 years old, he weighs 54 lbs, and he is neutered. He knows 'sit', 'down', 'paw' and he listens very well. He lives walks and he does great in car rides. He is in good health and has no behavioral issues.
He is currently in Woodbridge, VA. He is being fostered as an only dog, in an apartment with furparents that are home a lot.

He does not, which is why he has lived in apartments for so long.
George loves a good treat, a long walk and doing tricks for food. He loves being the center of the world. Sadly that was not the case in his prior life, he was a side show. He was forced to move a lot, which dogs hate. He just did not have the right home.
Now he has a great home, but sadly they do not have a yard. They know George loves being outside, so we are looking for a large yard for him, with the right environment.
